Description
As the Eisenhower administration struggled with the Cold War, another Asian conflict challenged containment policy. Still trying to keep with Europe first, Ike was faced with growing problems in far-off Vietnam and closer to home in Cuba. American commitment to an independent, democratic South Vietnam in a changing world would slowly move toward the center of U.S. policy through the JFK administration. Join us as we examine the first phase of the Vietnam War through 1963.
